allow of the civil Magistrate to govern the rude people To this I answer The Magistrate is very needful in every inhabited Land for the government of the People in all civil things to do equal justice between man and man if such a Magistrate could be found it would be a rare thing Again I declare from the Holy Spirit although the Magistrate be but a heathen Ruler as he is wherefore Christ said of this Magistrate unto his Apostles the Kings or Princes of the Gentiles exercise Lordship over them and they that exercise Authority upon them are called Benefactors but ye shall not be so but he that is greatest among you let him be as the younger yet I say from the Lord the Magistrate beareth not the Sword in vain but he is a type of the true spiritual Magistrate that can do nothing but equal Justice between the just and the unjust the Lord Jesus Christ Wherefore all men ought to yield obedience to the civil Laws of the Magistrate either by executing of his Lawes or patiently by bearing the curse of the Law upon their own persons leaving all vengeance unto God or else they rebel against God and they are in danger of an eternal curse because the government of this world and the glory thereof belongs only unto the wise and prudent heathen Magistrates in this Earth who are the very sons of Cain that old Serpent-Dragon-Devil that slew his righteous Brother Abel that he and his Seed that are of his own spirit might be the Lords and Rulers of this world for ever because Cain thought and his dark Angels thinks that there is no world at all but this only they have purchased the Lordship of this perishing world at a dear rate for it was the price of the innocent blood of righteous Abel it is their only heaven Therefore let us that have received faith to believe in the glorious person of the Lord Jesus by his power patiently suffer the cursed spirit of Cain in his heathen Magistrates to shed all our innocent blood if our God will have it so that they may fill up the measure of their fathers sins from the blood of righteous Abel and the holy Prophets to the precious blood of the Lord Iesus and the holy Apostles that our blood that are the two last Witnesses and Prophets of the Lord Iesus may make the last persecutors of Christians compleat Devils with their Father Cain who was the first bloody persecutor of the first suffering Christian therefore it is written that Christ was a Lamb slain from the beginning of the world he being slain in believing Abel I say from the Lord by the power of his Holy Spirit patiently let us yield up our lives with our God unto those perishing gods beforesaid because we that suffer with him are appointed to enter into an eternal Kingdom of glory in another world hid from the wise and prudent Rulers of this vanishing world therefore it is written which of the Rul●rs have believed in him again as it is written Why do the heathen then so furiously rage together the Kings of the earth stand up and the Rulers take Counsel together against the Lord and against his anointed or against his Christ Again as it is written by Paul howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect yet not the wisdom of this world nor of the Princes of this world that come to nought Again it is written which none of the Princes of this world knew for had they known it they would not have crucified the Lord of glory Again that world that we are to reign in after we have suffered it was purchased also by blood but it was the price of the precious unvaluable undefiled blood of our God the man Jesus who by his Holy Spirit that sent us only maketh us willing to taste a little of his Cup that he so deeply drank of the servant is not greater then the Master because we are to sit down with him upon his eternal Throne of glory to behold his face in the presence of all his holy Angels then these Scriptures will be fulfilled Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousnesse sake for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven Again Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake rejoyce and be exceeding glad for great is your reward in Heaven for so persecuted they the Prophet● which were before you Again Then shall the righteous shine forth as the Sun in the Kingdom of their Father Again For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his Angels and then he shall reward every man according to his works Again Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand Come ye blessed of my Father inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world Again then shall he say unto them on the left hand Depart from me ye cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his Angels XII AGain I declare by Revelation from the Holy Spirit that since the fall of our first Parents that the spirit and body of man are both mortal and that by the Decree of the Creator the soul and body of man are both procreated or begot together and they are both of one nature and so both but one Creature for it is the invisible spirit that liveth in the seed and nature of man that by the Decree of God creates or begets that form of flesh in the person of a man or woman according to their kind and thus it is with this whole Creation every seed or spirit naturally by the wisdom of the Creator brings forth their own bodies or kind whether Man Beast Fish or Fowl and all things else that grows naturally brings forth in their season according to their natures because the Creator by his secret Counsel and Wisdom decreed within his glorious Person before any thing was created or formed by him that all things or Creatures that should be created or formed by his infinite Wisdom should bring forth their own bodies or kind only and no other for ever therefore when men and beasts seeds are unnaturally mixt together contrary to their kind the Lord discovers them both to their destruction and his glory Wherefore I declare from the Lord Jesus and it is a cursed Imagination in any man to think when men die their spirits may go into other forms and bodies contrary to their own natures or kind as many a cursed lying Atheist prates that denyes the Resurrection of mens bodies through the love of some dark fleshly lust they live in They are in spiritual darknesse understanding nothing of the power of God and so erring not knowing the Scriptures as it is written nor the power of God therefore it is a common thing for these blind Atheists in their discourse to say when men die their spirits may or do go
